As a totalitarian regime the Third Reich developed its own language, a perversion of the German language. The control of hearts and minds, to which totalitarian political systems aspire, necessitates such a perversion of the normal use of language. Meaning is twisted and distorted in such a way that the citizens of a totalitarian state can no longer distinguish truth from falsehood. They are reduced to such a state of confusion and impotence that they can be fully manipulated by the dictatorial government.

In the summer of 1932, the federal government, headed by Chancellor Franz von Papen dismissed the elected government of the state of Prussia and placed it under the direct control of the chancellor. Although in the fall, the Constitutional Court--the German equivalent of our Supreme Court--ruled in Prussia versus Reich that the chancellor had acted unconstitutionally, it nonetheless held that his dismissal of the Prussian government could stand. Thus, Prussia vs. Reich helped to grease the skids for Hitlers Gleichschaltung of the states, whose power it had weakened.
